a trivia question...

a friend of mine gave me this trivia question, and while i typically think i'm pretty good at trivia and/or googling things, i couldn't find an answer anywhere. does anyone know? or have any decent guesses?

Question: Which athlete/philosopher has this view on an important creed, hoping we might one day possibly join him in sharing one of his many views? (Or not, whatever.)

"The Olympic creed is great because it's some one else's idea and it matches up well with mine which makes me think that either I'm not sane or someone else is insane along with me. That creed is unbelievably valuable. There's not many things I feel that way about because I'm not big on slogans, I'm not big on people buying into something, but it encompasses a lot. I think it's something to live by."

thanks!
